Abstract: The use of SAA/MAA levels in mammalian fluids to develop management strategies that maximize mammalian health, productivity, and economic return including for example the formulation of cost effective nutritional management strategies, determining whether an individual mammal should be retained in a herd or culled, determining the value of the individual mammal as a contributor of genetic material for herd replacement, determining a course of immediate and/or prophylactic health care intervention, etc.

Abstract: A composition, and method of use, for controlling, reducing or preventing the growth of protozoal bacteria in the rumen of a ruminant comprising cell bodies of a facultative anaerobe selected from the group consisting of Corynebacterium cell bodies and Brevibacterium cell bodies or a mixture of Corynebacterium cell bodies and Brevibacterium cell bodies, glutamic acid fermentation solubles, corn fermentation solubles, glutamic acid fermentation solubles and corn fermentation solubles.

Abstract: A feed additive for equines, comprising dried glutamic acid fermentation solubles, dried corn fermentation solubles, or a mixture of dried glutamic acid fermentation solubles and dried corn fermentation solubles, wherein said dried solubles have been dried to a total moisture content of less than 30% by weight at a temperature not less than about 80° F. and not more than about 900.

Abstract: A soil adjuvant, comprising dried glutamic acid fermentation solubles, dried corn fermentation solubles, or a mixture of dried glutamic acid fermentation solubles and dried corn fermentation solubles, wherein said dried solubles have been dried to a total moisture content of less than 30% by weight at a temperature not less than about 80° F. and not more than about 900° F. The dried fermentation solubles can be mixed with a carrier, such as corn middlings, in a ratio of 1:10 to 10:1 by weight.

Abstract: A liquid feed supplement includes a blend of aromatic flavoring agents in a fat-miscible liquid base and liquid fats. In the preferred form of the invention, the liquid fats are a blend of one source of fatty acids having a carbon chain length between 2 and 21 carbon atoms and a second source of fatty acids having a carbon chain length between 14 and 21 carbon atoms. The best results have been obtained with a propionic acid base solution for the flavoring agents; coconut oil for the first fat source; and a blend of corn and soy oils for the second fat source. The supplement not only increases the production performance, but also overcomes caloric satiety so as to increase total feed intake in monogastrics.
